       Em7          D6/A        C D6/A
In the silence of a high street
       Em7          D6/A  C D6/A
In the wisper in the night
         Em7             D6/A        C D6/A
From the darkness of the empty hours
        Em7            D6/A C D6/A
To the early morning light

          G                           C
From the hustle down on the Main Street
      G                       C
With all it's lights so bright
         G                    C
To the trucker on the highway
                      D
Pressing through the night

Chorus:
G                D        Em C
I can hear your heartbeat
G                D        Em C
I can hear your heartbeat
          G               D   Em C     D
Girl the sound of you is so sweet to me

I'm in a European disco
And it's thumping up the beat
There's a jukebox in a café
Where the younger ones can meet

We got freezing Coca-Cola
We got anything you want
I can hear that back beat
Girl, but it's you that sings the song

Chorus:
'Cause I can hear your heartbeat
Yeah, I can hear your heartbeat
Girl, the sound of you is so sweet
To me

And I'm sailing on your wind song
Oh, I can feel the summer breeze
You've got me walking on my tiptoes
You've got me standing on my knees

From the mills way down in Pittsburgh
To the clubs of gay Paris
Ah, no matter where I roam, girl
You can always get to me

Chorus:
'Cause I can hear your heartbeat
Yeah, I can hear your heartbeat
Girl, the sound of you is so sweet
To me

Oh, I can hear your heartbeat
Yeah, I hear your heartbeat
Girl, the sound of you is so sweet
To me

Yeah, I can hear your heartbeat
Oh, I hear your heartbeat
Girl, the sound of you is so sweet
To me
